MASTER DEGREE IN ARCHITECTURE
In a world that often tells us to fit in, uniqueness is a quality that makes us different—being unique means carrying a voice that hasn’t been heard before. Thinking outside the box and bringing a character to the table is an absolute gem. That’s a secret potion for growth.
My journey with Gebze Technical University started in 2023, and after two years of being a classified architectural knowledge seeker, I am here to declare a special day in my life. This moment of graduating from my master’s degree in architecture is a noteworthy stepping stone in my personal growth. Alhamdulillah.
I wanna thank God for looking after me.
I wanna thank my family, friends and mentors for the support.
I want to thank Sedef Özçelik for giving me the flexibility to work on a unique topic and directing it to systematic scientific research. I wanna thank the jury, Senem Kaymaz and Nüket İpek Çetin.
I want to thank Gal Interiors and Motif for allowing me to work and study for my master's degree simultaneously.
Besides the thesis journey, I’m glad that I met these teachers in GTU: İbrahim Türkeri, Zeynep Yaman Galantini, Zeynep Tarçın Turgay and Seher Güzelçoban Mayuk. Shout out to their works.
Check out my thesis, “Critique of Sameness: Metacities’ Urban Character.”
Work for your dreams 💪
